IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when
using your appliance, follow these basic precautions:
Read all instructions before using the wine cellar.
DANGER: Risk of child becoming trapped in new cellar, old wine cellar/refrigeration unit, or large boxes.
Junked or abandoned appliances, boxes and other containers are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in
the garage for a few days”.
Before you throw away your old wine cellar or refrigeration unit: 1. Take off the door. 2. Leave the
shelves in place so that children cannot climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Do not store in the vicinity of any other appliance. Do not store near gasoline or any other flammable vapors.
The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
-Save these instructions-
BEFORE USING YOUR WINE CELLAR
Remove the exterior and interior packaging.
Before connecting the wine cellar to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This
will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(a) General Installation Instructions
This appliance is designed for free standing installation. Do not build-in or recess into closed cabinetry.
Place your wine cellar on a flat, solid floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level
your wine cellar, adjust the front leveling leg at the bottom of the wine cellar.
When moving your wine cellar, please do not incline it more than 45 degrees.
Locate the wine cellar away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct
sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme
cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit to perform improperly.
Avoid locating the unit in damp areas.
Plug the wine cellar into a dedicated (for this appliance only), properly installed and grounded wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (grounding) prong from the power cord. Any
questions concerning power and/or electrical grounding should be directed to a certified electrician or
authorized product service center.

(b) Installation of Unit as a Built-In Cellar
The cutout dimension illustrated below allows for door clearance and access to the pull-out shelves when installed
as a built-in appliance.
If installing between frameless cabinets, a ½” wide filler strip or side panel may be needed on hinge side. The filler
strip will act as a spacer between the appliance case and adjacent cabinet door swing.

OPERATING YOUR WINE CELLAR
Each wine cellar includes an operating panel on the front of the unit. This operating panel includes several features to
operate and control the temperature of both the UPPER and LOWER zones of the wine cellar. The operating panel
includes the following features:
ON/OFF: Turns the wine cellar system on or off.
UPPER ZONE: Adjusts and displays, via LED, the desired temperature (F) and the actual temperature (F) of the
UPPER zone.
LOWER ZONE: Adjusts and displays, via LED, the desired temperature (F) and the actual temperature (F) of the
LOWER zone.
LIGHT: Turns the interior wine cellar light on or off.
SELECT: Allows user to select control of the UPPER or LOWER zone.
BEFORE YOU START: The wine cellar should be placed in a location where the ambient temperature is between
60-80 degrees Fahrenheit. If the ambient temperature is above or below this range, the performance of the unit may
be affected. For example, placing your unit in extreme cold or hot conditions may cause interior temperatures to
fluctuate.

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS FOR SERVING WINE
1. Although optimal storage temperature is generally regarded to be 53-57°F, different varietals of wine require
different service. The recommended temperature ranges for serving different varietals of wine are listed below.
Your wine cellar will indicate when you have set the Upper/Lower zones to the below temperature ranges.
Red Wines: 60-66°F
White Wines 45-52°F
Sparkling Wines 40-45°F
2. If you set the LOWER zone between 59 - 64°F, the LED light next to “RED” will light up, indicating that you are
within the recommended range for serving Red Wines.
3. If you set the UPPER or LOWER zone between 48 - 58°F, the LED light next to “WHITE” will light up, indicating
that you are within the recommended range for serving White Wines.
4. If you set the UPPER zone between 41 - 47°F, the LED light next to “SPARKLING” will light up, indicating that
you are within the recommended range for serving Sparkling Wines
NOTE:
In the event of a power interruption, all previous temperature settings will automatically be saved, and each
compartment will return to the previous temperature setting.
If the unit is unplugged, loses power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting.
Attempting to restart the wine cellar before this time has elapsed may prevent the wine cellar from starting.
When you use the wine cellar for the first time or restart the wine cellar after having been shut off for a long time,
there will be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the LED
readout for the first few hours of operation. After a few hours of operation, the temperature will normalize to the
displayed temperature.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Wine Cellar.
Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including all shelves.

Short vacations: You may leave the wine cellar powered on and unattended for absences of less than three (3)
weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for more than three weeks, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it
open if necessary.
Moving Your Wine Cellar
